The storm was the latest in a string of powerful systems that has dumped as much as 19 feet of snow in the Sierra and 6½ feet in the Reno area since Dec. 28.
Forecasters called the series of storms the snowiest in the Reno-Lake Tahoe area since 1916.
Forecasters had originally said that some areas of Southern California might receive more than 20 inches of precipitation over the weekend. Although they later reduced that estimate, a campground near Mt. Wilson, Opids Camp, received 20.82 inches of precipitation between 4 p.m. Saturday and 4 p.m. Sunday.
In that same time period, downtown Los Angeles received 4.49 inches of rain, Beverly Hills 7.79 inches, Santa Monica 4.7 inches, Chatsworth 5.81 inches, Claremont 7.51 inches and Lancaster 2.36 inches.
The current dousing, which began Thursday, has been the heaviest. More than 15 inches have fallen in Los Angeles in the first nine days of 2005, as much as the average annual rainfall downtown.

[/size]3 Dead, 12 Missing After Calif. Mudslide
LA CONCHITA, Calif. - [size=-1] A huge mudslide crashed down on homes in a coastal hamlet with terrifying force Monday, killing three people and leaving up to 12 missing as a Pacific storm hammered Southern California for a fourth straight day.
Mudslides seem to happen out there regardless of wether it rains or not. I guess it to be too much clearing for building dwellings willy-nilly. Once you clear out enough trees and brush, theres no root system to keep it glued together in times of stress.Inkara1 said:
